And the best burger I've ever had. No picture, but it looked like a burger. Nothing special - good local butcher, I squashed the patty down a little then put it on a blazing hot griddle. Was seasoned first with Jamie Oliver bbq seasoning. Brioche bun, no sesames, good quality streaky bacon, medium-strong slab of cheddar, avocado, gherkins, mustard, mayo, ketchup. Sensational homemade chips and onion rings (both, also, the best I've ever had). I have now reached burger nirvana - can't imagine I'll ever have a better one. Which is sad.

Is it? Sad? I like when things like that happen. I can still taste the best pigeon I ever had and I still remember that evening. Celebrate it and enjoy your future burgers for other reasons.

The very last of the mustard greens from the garden, with gnocchi.

Beautiful. That's a healthy dose of lemon zest!

I love it with any of those bitter greens.

I love the tangy.

Lemons, cranberries, lingonberries, grapefruit, anything.

I like to keep fresh squeezed frozen lemon and lime juice on hand. I put it into those little individual take out cups like salad dressing comes in. I can drop one or two into a glass of club soda, or use them when cooking.

This morning, I'll have cranberry pancakes. They look like pancakes, but with cranberries in ''em..

Weekend away with the parent in-laws and SIL and BIL. I'm happily sus chef and have been cooking for about 2 hours already!

Tapas will take 3 hours to make, apparently.

So, that new poke place I tried today ended in projectile vomiting. I'm going to go ahead and not recommend Poke Bowl on 2nd Street.

Yeah, maybe not a good review on Yelp I'm thinking. Sorry to hear that. I tend to assume that raw things are safe if the restaurant knows what they are doing. Maybe it's that last bit about skill that divides the good from the bad...
